Medical information is now widely available on the Internet and
through telephone helplines such as NHS Direct and the focus on
patient self care is likely to increase. Clinicians in all
specialties will often encounter patients who have made
self-directed searches for medical information prior to the
clinical encounter. Teleneurology by Internet and Telephone is a
study of patient information-seeking behaviour in neurology
patients prior to referral from primary to secondary care. The book
analyses frequency of Internet access and use, and of telephone
helpline awareness and use. It also explores use of these
modalities over time, use according to patient gender and age and
by gender and age over time. Teleneurology by Internet and
Telephone is an accessible overview of the utility of these
modalities of health information provision and will be of interest
not only to neurologists and clinicians in other specialities but
also to public health researchers, sociologists and political
scientists with an interest in questions of health care provision.
